Base game is fun
This game is fine if you play as the base character. The other knights you play as are clunky and result in a lot of stupid, cheap deaths.

Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove
Great Platformer with expansions for almost all tastes. Multi Genre in use: Shovel Knight is your standard Metroidvania, Plague Knight lets you approach the game from a caster perspective, Specter lets you be Ninja Gaiden and King Knigth takes some elements from Wario and also it's a full blown card game. I wish I had this in physical. It's really great.

A modern love letter to games of old.
There's not much I can say about this game aside that it is absolutely fantastic. The action platformer is remiscent of the old days of Castlevania, Mega Man and the like but brought to the modern era. Tight controls, great pixelart visuals, genuinely satifying difficulty curve, insanely good soundtrack, it's all here. If you're a lover of action platformers this game is definitely worth picking up. The different Knights you can play as create a lot of different and varied gameplay as long as different perspectives on the story and world.

Jump n' Shovel!
To say this is one of the best platformers out there is an UNDERSTATEMENT. Shovel Knight is an extremely polished, good looking NES throwback. If you haven't played it, now is a great time to pick it up. Even at 25 dollars, this game is a steal. 3 completely different campaigns, with a fourth one coming out this year, secret bosses, puzzles, multiplayer, and an upcoming BATTLE MODE. You can't get any better than this for the price. And the different campaigns are basically separate games. EVERYTHING changes, it's insane. But let's talk about the game itself: It's good. Really good. Much better than... Most of the NES games it's trying to emulate. The gameplay is very similar to that of Megaman. Escept you jump and shovel instead of jump and shoot. You select a level, fight a boss, gain an ability, which you have to find scattered throughout the levels... Or buy in the town's shop should you fail to get them instage. rince and repeat. And that's in theory how the game works. The way you select where to go though, is more akin to Super Mario Bros 3, which keeps things from getting dull outside of the main game. What makes this game special though, is the great level design, soundtrack, fun mechanics, and great controls. Especially the controls. Bouncing off of enemies Duck Tales style can seem hard if you only watched a playthrough, but it's surprising how intuitive it felt. I have heard some people complain the game is hard, but trust me, it's nowhere near the difficulty of, say, Megaman games. Instead, the game let's you chose how hard you want it to be through upgrades and the genious checkpoint system, which let's you destroy checkpoints in exchange for a ton of cash. What a genius idea to balance profit and risk! You can make the game harder, but never unfair...er. Each time you die, you KNOW it's your fault and not the game's. There's not much one can say about this game that hasn't been said yet, you just need to buy it. Period.

A great deal (On sale of course!)
My Meaty Subjects: Four games in one nice neat little package, you really can't go wrong with Shovel Knight Treasure Trove. I am behind on the times but, if you were like me and you contemplating on getting this game, treat yourself. Shovel knight pays homage to the 8 bit console era with revamped pixel art and, the tongue and cheek wit typical of nostalgia game pieces. For any of you fellow old timers Shovel Knight has a level map system that is similar to Mario 3, plays like Zelda II The Adventure of Link or Faxanadu, and has boss battles like Mega Man. The handling, of course, has been up dated to provide a for a more enjoyable gaming experience than in the 8 bit days. However, I find that timing shovel strikes mid air especially ascent/decent is a bit iffy. The level difficulty of this game has a steady and increases rather quickly but the game doesn't punish you too harshly for failure. Shovel Showdown is a bit of a different beast. It is a 8 bit simulacra of Smash Bros. I have not played it in multiplayer yet but, it looks promising. Shovel Knight will be my go to game for a while. Master of Burgers All, BurgerOverlord
